- part 3a - Match the adverbs to their meanings (and find them in the story).
- accidentally = by mistake (opposite: purposely / purposefully or deliberately)
- unfortunately = by bad luck (opposite: fortunately)
- temporarily = for a short time (opposite: permanently)
- immediately = at once
- apparently = it seems that
- adjective + -ly = adverb = “in a [adjective] way”
- (noun + -ly = adjective = “like a [noun]”)
- ---
- part 3b - Cross out the adverb that does NOT make sense.
- 1 Quickly
- 2 (both are fine, “incredibly” means I’m very surprised that nobody was hurt)
- 3 (both are fine, “amazingly” means it’s very surprising, like if there was major damage and destruction and people expected they wouldn’t restore service, “gradually” means slowly and step by step)
- 4 Rapidly (“coincidentally” means a similar thing also happened, but was not connected to this)
- 5 sadly
- 6 Slowly
- ---
- Some adverbs can be adverbs of manner (to tell us more about a verb) or sentence adverbs (to tell us more about a whole sentence):
- She looked sadly out of the broken window. = Her look was sad.
- Sadly, the window was broken. = We are sad because the window was broken.
- “Are we going to the game?” he asked hopefully. (his question was hopeful)
- Hopefully, we are going to the game. (I hope we will go.)
